Dear Wordpress User, Don’t hit the panic button, but… YOU’RE EXPOSING YOURSELF! (And you don’t even know it.) Here’s the ugly truth: Simply installing WordPress with standard settings and plugins, and hoping you’re protected, is NOT enough! I know this from personal experience after having not one but fourteen of my sites attacked.
At first, everything seemed fine. Then one evening, I received a scary email from my hosting service. They said that one of my sites was sending spam email. Worse, the damage was spreading across ALL of my websites. I needed to take action, right away.
